Hey you.
You who have spent several years planning the world building for whatever comic/book/game/etc you’ve always wanted to tell but never started on because “you werent good enough yet”:

Look at the state of the world.

If you wanna make your magnum opus you gotta make it now.

Replacing color hex codes and banner images is easy. What is not easy is literally anything beyond that.

Losing my mind and what look like video game assets but instead were used to justify war crimes and genocide in the real world

NEW: Since October 2023, the IDF Spokesperson's Unit has released dozens of 3D animations illustrating alleged Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iranian sites

The style is unmistakable: satellite zoom-ins, black & white wireframes, and red-textured houses - a new visual language of war.Our analysis of 43 official IDF videos found recycled 3D environments, spatial inaccuracies, and assets lifted from unrelated artists and institutions.We traced over 30 unique assets to Washington-based 3D creator Ian Hubert, who makes bespoke models created for his sci-fi project Dynamo Dream, available to his Patreon subscribers.

Models of parking lots, antennas, + pipes were repurposed as Hamas and Iranian military sites

Fascinating work here tracing how the IDF recycled 3D assets from a cyberpunk sci-fi art project, the Scottish Maritime Museum and elsewhere to populate its widely-seen models of supposed enemy locations in Gaza, Lebanon and Iran. One of the most infamous, the alleged underground Hamas command center at Al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza City, used to justify an unprecedented assault on the biggest medical center in Gaza, was actually an animation the IDF had used the previous year, saying at the time it was a tunnel beneath a UN school.

I consider spirited away to be a very specific type of childhood nightmare. Like the scene if her parents turning to pigs is horrifying.

You have a work experience that not many other artists have and that is imo a way bigger advantage than how good or fast you are at drawing.

Freida Parton says she did not mean to scare anyone when asking for prayers for her older sister, Dolly:

Freida Parton
“I want to clear something up. I didn't mean to scare anyone or make it sound so serious when asking for prayers for Dolly. She's been a little under the weather, and I simply asked for prayers because I believe so strongly in the power of prayer. It was nothing more than a little sister asking for prayers for her big sister. Thank you all for lifting her up. Your love truly makes a difference.”

I think that type of stuff is done with javascript.
I recently made my own neocities site too, coding it was a huge headache but it’s honestly worth the struggle.

well I DID get my current job thanks to a tweet back in 2020 so there's that.

I dont consider most of todays social media platforms to be "social", it's just media and ads and bots.

a digital painting of a woman crouched on a white box, in front of a white studio background. she is posed in such a way that she is looking at the viewer directly, though her head is tilted forward. she is wearing sporty black underwear but is otherwise nude, with light highlighting her shoulders and hair, and long, sharp, prosthetic claws on her fingers.

all discourse aside, there is one machine with consciousness. it's printers. they are alive and conscious and they hate you and they'd take your arm clean off if you let them. never trust a printer.

California has now banned algorithmic price fixing.

The state has outlawed the practice of landlords colluding to raise prices using rental software and AI.

This is a huge victory for renters in the biggest state in the country.
